drum brakes rant

[SS Shaun]

yeah i had the pictures and everything just getting all those springs to line up killed me! i guess i should of left them backwards! so now i have one side in correctly and the other side is in backwards. I didnt even want to look at the other side once i got that one done. i was so angry i didnt even know what to do with myself! i cleaned off ate something and jumped in the pool! i needed to cool off. it took a major toll on me today and dreading doing the other side tomorrow. i really want to get my car off the jack stand and tires back on. but i think i am going to just replace the shocks tomorrow and see how i feel about taking the other side apart just yet. Like i told my wife and my uncle i had an easier time doing a motor swap in my rx7 then i did with that drum brake! took me 75 mins to get the ls1 in my rx7 took me 90 to change the drum brakes! only one side! forget that! i already told my wife on her daily driver when her drums go the shop is doing it because i am not touching it. i made it a point to buy all of my cars with 4 wheel drive disc brakes and she fell in love with that car nothing i could do about it. but for me i will never own another car with drum brakes!
